Boca Grande house description

The Boca Grande Beach House is a one-story duplex. This house has four bedrooms, two kitchens, two bathrooms, and two combination living room/dining rooms. There is a large screened-in porch, a small front patio and a generous side yard with table, chairs and chaise lounge. You can choose to rent two bedrooms or four bedrooms, please call or email for clarification on pricing.

The house is located directly across the street from a 7 mile, white sand beach with an unobstructed view of the sunset. It is located just to the north of and across from the historic Boca Grande Lighthouse Beacon. It is a short walk to the charming village of Boca Grande and the Boca Grande Community Center with a workout room, play ground and library with internet access. Tennis courts are at the end of our street. The seven mile jog/bike path runs directly in front of the property.

Once you on the island, you do not need a car. Golf carts and bikes can be rented in town. I can recommend a reasonable van service to pick you up at the following airports: Sarasota Airport (SRQ) 1hr. 20min., Ft. Myers (RSW) 1hr. 30min., Tampa (TPA) 2 hrs, Miami (MIA) 3 hrs.

Owner info

Year Purchased: 1986

About the owner: This photo was taken in Dec.2011, when our family gathered at Boca Grande to celebrate my mother's 90th birthday. We have all enjoyed our visits to the island over the years. Mike and I live in FL, about 11/2 hrs. away, and are very 'hands on' making sure that everything is clean and in good order for our guests.

Why the Owner Chose Boca Grande: Our family is very fortunate that my parents, who have vacationed in Boca Grande since the 1970's, had the foresight to purchase this property. It has been a wonderful place for our family to gather and enjoy over the years. We all feel a special attachment to Boca Grande.

The Unique Benefits at this House: The house is casual and comfortable. It is in a terrific location on a large corner lot, directly across the road from the beach and an easy walk to town. Most of our guests choose to return year after year and consider it their 'home away from home'.
